About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Meredith is a Florida LMHC with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, trauma and related issues. She also sees people coping with bipolar disorder, ADHD, body image and sleep difficulties.

Her style is direct and practical. Sessions focus on what is happening at home and how it affects day-to-day life. She uses concrete tools to help people manage emotions, improve communication, and handle parenting strain. Conversations include goal-setting and steps to try between meetings.

Jacqueline draws on several evidence-based approaches to guide her work. She may use cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy for emotion regulation and acceptance and commitment therapy to clarify values and take action.

For people with trauma, she works with methods that address distressing memories and their effects on current life. She supports people dealing with grief, relationship stress, or complicated family roles by helping them develop clearer boundaries and practical coping routines.

Clients can expect straightforward discussion of problems and small experiments to test what helps. Jacqueline pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and parenting. The emphasis is on noticeable, everyday improvements rather than abstract theory.

How sessions work

Approaches Jacqueline Uses and how online work fits

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are uncomfortable. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, actions, and feelings and tests small behavioral experiments to change patterns. It is commonly used for depression, sleep and eating difficulties, and managing mood symptoms.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress without making things worse. It is useful for people who struggle with intense anger, emotion swings, or self-destructive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will help figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress is tracked. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online therapy because it can fit into busy days, reduce travel time, and make regular check-ins easier to keep. Online sessions can also allow shorter midweek check-ins or focused skill-practice between in-person commitments depending on the session types offered.
